It’s the Pits! (A View from Director Sportiv/Coach/Therapist Chair)
Well, it’s been a few days now for the dust to settle since we came back from Scotland on a mission to see how our future X-Man would cope with the rigours of a real test of his endurance on the bike. I went along as a one-stop-shop for support duties, providing nutrition, coaching and [...]
Ergonomic Products: Great advances but be cautious….
HI All, I wanted to write a short post to crystallise my thoughts and opinions on the proliferation of ergonomic bike components and aids which aim to help you ride more comfortably or efficiently.

Just call me Richard Llewellyn Bowen
I know I posted some photos of the new Lab at the Velodrome a few weeks back, but you know what it’s like, when you move into a new place, you get all the stuff in and make it ‘live-able’ and then it stays in limbo for a while until you have some free time [...]

I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know a little bit more about all the stuff we have got going on this year and next. I know I hinted about things a couple of weeks ago but plans are coming together nicely and I wanted to bring you up to speed. We have [...]
Show – Business
Last week saw the London Bike show at the Excel Centre. I went along to have a chat to a few industry types and since we had spent the whole of the Cycle 2011 show manning our own stand, we thought this would be a good opportunity to be able to just relax and check [...]
Big things for Olympic Year!
Hi All, I hope everyone is having a good start to the New Year and is slowly getting back into the swing of work, training and life in general after a good festive season. This time of year sees loads of folk donning the lycra or dusting off a severely neglected gym membership card, and [...]
